NanoWorkstation

About

The current challenge in the field of microscopy is to add the 'hand' function to the electron microscope to allow physical manipulation and characterization at the micro- and nanoscale. The NanoWorkstation is a powerful, dedicated system that performs such tasks with ease and can be integrated into most commercially available SEMs and FIBs.

The NanoWorkstation makes high-end manipulation practical and affordable for industrial and research labs, allowing you to remain competitive in a world where critical dimensions are now in the nanometer range.

The module-based system offers high versatility, giving you the flexibility to perform numerous different specialized applications by simply changing the tool attached to the front of the manipulator, whether it is moving, assembling, preparing, rotating, pushing, probing, feeling, listening, gripping or any other task you can imagine.

Four MM3A-EM Micromanipulators

The NanoWorkstation is based on four of our versatile MM3A-EM micromanipulators. These can be fitted with a range of plug-ins as well as customised tools. The micromanipulators can be mounted to almost any SEM or FIB/SEM on the market.

The industry standard three-axis manipulator with unmatched stability and precision

Two Rotation Tips

The NanoWorkstation also contains two RoTip-EM rotational tips that add a fourth degree of freedom to the MM3A-EM. The 'wrist rotation' module can be combined with the microgripper or force sensing plug-ins for added flexibility.

All technical specifications are approximate. Due to continuous development, we reserve the right to change specifications without notice.

iProbe

iProbe Module

Rewritten from the ground up, the iProbe software provides the most flexible and intuitive way to control up to twelve micromanipulators through six orders of magnitude. It allows three-dimensional control via two-handed operation - your mouse for X and Y movements and a jog dial for Z movements.
